    i know this will fall on deaf ears but for the love of god STOP using "african-american" as an umbrella term for BLACK. lupita was born in mexico and is ethnically KENYAN. winston is an immigrant from TOBAGO. they are not african-american. get out starred daniel kaluuya, born in london from UGANDAN parents. just say BLACK.

    It’s some people that don’t like this movie because they don’t understand the concept lol. That’s why you have to pay attention. Watch it again. I’ve seen it 3x already lol

      lmTrynaROBYOU exactly people calling it “dumb” or “boring and overrated” were the same people laughing and not fully paying attention. It’s such a deep concept with symbolism.

    “I love horror because it gets a visceral reaction. It gets an audible reaction. And it always makes you feel first. Art that makes you feel ends up making you think.” That’s a very good point from Peele.

    Peele said that Lupita gave some of the most iconic horror performances in history. That's pretty major. You may say it's self-serving since it was in his movie, but I'm inclined to agree

    “I think that we are our own worst enemy because we are so capable of lying to ourselves...about our shame, about our guilt, about our sins...we are very good at telling ourselves, ‘It’s not us, it’s them.’ When you suppress something as a group, whether it be racism, classism, or xenophobia...historically, we see it come out in very atrocious ways.” The themes expressed in the movie that Jordan discusses right here are SO POETIC.

It was entertaining all the way through. It was hard not to give out all the spoilers in our video review but we managed to not spill the beans! The performances are OUTSTANDING and the movie is creepy AF. #Watchyourself!

    Ok I haven’t seen the movie yet just the trailer. But was I the only one that thought the film could be lowkey commenting on how white people would one day call us color people white and them black. Idk I thought of that because of the recent extreme issue of black facing and cultural appropriation happening nowadays. Especially since get out was about white people messing with the mental of black people. So I assume the other version of the family was white people themselves imitating this black family and trying to get rid of them.

    • @astrowiz3544
      @astrowiz3544 5 лет назад +1

      Yeahhh the movie has really nothing to do with race if you go watch it. It's about the class divide in America and how we keep the proletariats from making something more of themselves because we define them as unpriveleged.
